Introduction to DNA Methylation:

Cytosine methylation is a naturally occurring base modification, in both prokaryotic

and eukaryotic organisms, consisting of the addition of a methyl group to the fifth carbon
position of the cytosine pyrimidine ring via a methyltransferase enzyme (1). In
prokaryotes DNA methylation provides a way to protect host DNA from digestion by
restriction endonucleases that are designed to eliminate foreign DNA. DNA methylation
in higher eukaryotes functions in the regulation/control of gene expression (2).
The majority of DNA methylation in mammals occurs in 5′-CpG-3′ dinucleotides,
although other patterns do exist. About 80 percent of all 5′-CpG-3′ dinucleotides in
mammalian genomes are found to be methylated, and the majority of the twenty percent
that remain unmethylated are within promoters or in the first exons of genes. It has been
demonstrated that aberrant DNA methylation is a widespread phenomenon in cancer
and may be among the earliest changes to occur during oncogenesis (3). DNA
methylation has also been shown to play a central role in gene imprinting, embryonic
development, X-chromosome gene silencing, and cell cycle regulation.
The ability to detect and quantify DNA methylation efficiently and accurately has
become essential for the study of cancer, gene expression, genetic diseases, and many
other important aspects of biology. To date, a number of methods have been developed
to detect/quantify DNA methylation including: high-performance capillary electrophoresis
(4) and methylation-sensitive arbitrarily primed PCR (5). However, the most common
techniques used today still rely on bisulfite conversion (6).
Treating DNA with bisulfite chemically modifies non-methylated cytosines into uracil,
methylated cytosines remain unchanged. Once converted, the methylation profile of the
DNA can be determined using the desired downstream application. For single locus
analysis, the region of interest is generally amplified following bisulfite conversion (i.e.,
bisulfite PCR) and then sequenced or processed for Pyrosequencing ®. Recent
advances in methylation detection also allow the investigation of genome-wide
methylation using technologies including array-based methods, reduced representation

Protocol:

1. Add 130 µl of Lightning Conversion Reagent to 20 µl of a DNA sample in a

Conversion Plate. Mix the samples by pipetting up and down.
Note: If the volume of DNA is less than 20 µl, compensate with water.

2. Seal the plate with the provided film. Transfer the Conversion Plate to a thermal
cycler and perform the following steps:

1. 98°C for 8 minutes

2. 54°C for 60 minutes
3. 4°C storage for up to 20 hours
Note: The 4 °C storage step is optional.

3. Pre-heat a plate heating element to 55°C.

Note: Alternatively, depending on the time necessary for the element to reach temperature, this can be performed
any time prior to step 10.

4. Add 600 µl of M-Binding Buffer and 10 µl of MagBinding Beads to each well of a

Collection Plate.
Note: MagBinding Beads settle very quickly, ensure that beads are kept suspended in the reservoir while adding to
the plate.

5. Transfer the samples from the Conversion Plate into the Collection Plate
containing the M-Binding Buffer and MagBinding Beads. Mix by pipetting up and
down 3-6 times and, if available, vortexing at 1,300-1,500 rpm for 30 seconds (e.g.
Tecan - Te-Shake™).
Note: Transfer may be accomplished by either piercing or removing the cover foil on the Conversion Plate. If using
a Collection Plate as a stand for the Conversion Plate it may be necessary to secure the plates together by using
the tabs on the cover foil to prevent lifting of the Conversion Plate.

6. Let plate stand at room temperature for 5 minutes, then transfer plate to a magnetic
stand for an additional 5 minutes or until beads pellet and supernatant is cleared.
With the plate on the magnetic stand remove the supernatant and discard.
Note: Some beads will adhere to the sides of the well. Remove supernatant slowly to allow these beads to be
pulled to the magnet as the liquid level is lowered.

7. Remove the Collection Plate from the magnetic stand for this and each subsequent
buffer addition. Add 400 µl of M-Wash Buffer to the beads. Re-suspend the beads
by pipetting up and down or vortexing the plate at 1,300-1,500 rpm for 30 seconds.
Replace the plate on the magnetic stand for 3 minutes or until beads pellet.
Remove and discard supernatant.

Protocol (continued):

8. Add 200 µl of L-Desulphonation Buffer to the beads. Re-suspend the beads by

pipetting up and down or vortexing for 30 seconds. Let plate stand at room
temperature (20-30°C) for 15-20 minutes. After the incubation, replace the plate on
the magnetic stand for 3 minutes or until beads pellet. Remove and discard
supernatant.
Note: Take time for handling/re-suspension into account for the total incubation time. Adjust time as necessary to
ensure that no sample remains in the L-Desulphonation Buffer for more than 20-25 minutes.

9. Add 400 µl of M-Wash Buffer to the beads. Re-suspend the beads by pipetting up
and down or vortexing for 30 seconds. Replace the plate on the magnetic stand for 3
minutes or until beads pellet. Remove and discard supernatant. Repeat this wash
step.
Note: Remove as much buffer as possible after final wash to aid in the drying of the beads.

10. Transfer the plate to a heating element at 55°C for 20-30 minutes to dry the beads
and remove residual M-Wash Buffer.
Alternatively, water or TE
Note: Beads will change in appearance from glossy black when still wet to a dull brown when fully dry. (pH ≥ 6.0) can be used for
elution if required for your
experiments.
11. Add 25 µl of M-Elution Buffer directly to the dried beads and pipette or vortex for 30
seconds to re-suspend. Heat the elution at 55°C for 4 minutes then transfer the
plate to the magnetic stand for 1 minute or until beads pellet. Remove the
supernatant and transfer to a clean Elution Plate.
Note: If beads are removed with the elution, slowly pippetting up and down one or two times will allow them to be
pulled to the magnet.

The DNA is ready for immediate analysis or can be stored at or below -20°C for later
use. For long term storage, store at or below -70°C. We recommend using 1-4 µl of
eluted DNA for each PCR, however, up to 25 µl can be used if necessary. The
elution volume can be > 25 µl depending on the requirements of your experiments,
but small elution volumes will yield higher DNA concentrations.

Note: Methylated “C” is
underlined in the examples.
Note: Following bisulfite
conversion, the strands are
no longer complementary.
Note: Only one strand (A) is
amplified by a given primer
set. Only the reverse primer
binds to the converted DNA,
the forward primer will bind
the strand generated by the
reverse primer.
If the primer contains CpG
dinucleotides with uncertain
methylation status, then
mixed bases with C and T
(or G and A) can be used.
Usually, there should be no
more than one mixed
position per primer and it
should be located toward the
5’ end of the primer. It is not
recommended to have
mixed bases located at the
3’ end of the primer.

Appendix: Optimizing Bisulfite Conversion and PCR
1. Bisulfite Conversion of Double Stranded DNA Templates. The following
illustrates what occurs to a DNA template during bisulfite conversion.
Template: A: 5’-GACCGTTCCAGGTCCAGCAGTGCGCT-3’
B: 3’-CTGGCAAGGTCCAGGTCGTCACGCGA-5’
Bisulfite Converted: A: 5’-GATCGTTTTAGGTTTAGTAGTGCGTT-3’
B: 3’-TTGGCAAGGTTTAGGTTGTTATGCGA-5’
2. PCR Primer Design. Generally, primers 26 to 32 bases are required for
amplification of bisulfite converted DNA. In general, all Cs should be treated as Ts
for primer design purposes, unless they are in a CpG context. See example below.
Bisulfite Converted: A: 5’-GATCGTTTTAGGTTTAGTAGTGCGTT-3’
Primers: Reverse: 3’-ATCATCACRCAA-5’ R = G /A
Forward: 5’-GATYGTTTTAGGT-3’ Y = C /T
Zymo Research provides primer design assistance with its Bisulfite Primer Seeker
Program, available at: www.zymoresearch.com/tools/bisulfite-primer-seeker
3. Amount of DNA Required for Bisulfite Conversion. The minimal amount of
human or mouse genomic DNA required for bisulfite treatment and subsequent PCR
amplification is 100 pg. The optimal amount of DNA per bisulfite treatment is 200 to
500 ng. Although, up to 2 μg of DNA can be processed, it should be noted that high
input levels of DNA may result in incomplete bisulfite conversion for some GC-rich
regions.
4. PCR Conditions. Usually, 35 to 40 cycles are required for successful PCR
amplification of bisulfite converted DNA. Optimal amplicon size should be between
150-300 bp; however larger amplicons (up to 1 kb) can be generated by optimizing
the PCR conditions. Annealing temperatures between 55-60°C typically work well.
As most non-methylated cytosine residues are converted into uracil, the bisulfite-
treated DNA usually is AT-rich and has low GC composition. Non-specific PCR
amplification is relatively common with bisulfite treated DNA due to its AT-rich nature.
PCR using “hot start” polymerases is strongly recommended for the amplification of
bisulfite-treated DNA.
5. Quantifying Bisulfite Treated DNA. Following bisulfite treatment of genomic DNA,
the original base-pairing no longer exists since non-methylated cytosine residues are
converted into uracil. Recovered DNA is typically A, U, and T-rich and is single
stranded with limited non-specific base-pairing at room temperature. The absorption
coefficient at 260 nm resembles that of RNA. Use a value of 40 µg/ml for Ab260 = 1.0
when determining the concentration of the recovered bisulfite-treated DNA.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Should the input DNA be dissolved in TE, water, or some other buffer prior to
its conversion?

A: Water, TE or modified TE buffers can be used to dissolve the DNA and do not
interfere with the conversion process.

Q: Which Taq polymerase(s) do you recommend for PCR amplification of

converted DNA?

A: We recommend a “hot start” DNA polymerase (e.g., ZymoTaq™, page 10).

Q: Why are there two different catalog numbers for the EZ-96 DNA Methylation-
Lightning™ Kit?

A: The two different catalog numbers are used to differentiate between the binding
plates that are included in the kit. Deep and shallow-well binding plates are available
to accommodate most rotors and microplate carriers. Below is a comparison of the
